I'm thinking about buying my own flowers in bulk online. Does anyone have any experience with that? Any websites you would recommend? Did you have any problems with the quality of the flowers?

I did not buy mine online, but I did buy them from Sam's Club the day before the wedding. The prices were awesome and the quality was great. You might even be able to order them specially from Sam's Club in the colors you want - doesn't cost you anymore, just changes what color/stock they will order for that day and then set aside the ones you wanted.

I did fake flowers and made all my own stuff- my pictures looked great and you couldnt really even tell. I just dont always understand spending so much on something that is going to die

My bridal bargains book said Costco was a FANTASTIC place to buy flowers in bulk. It was there #1 pick.

Thanks so much for the great resources! I know we have several ladies on here planning weddings, so I thought I would share what I found... (keep in mind I am searching for a small wedding, so some might offer better prices per stem but overall would be more expensive for me because I'm buying more than I need):
Wedding Flowers - Wholesale Flowers in Bulk | FiftyFlowers.com - Wedding Bouquets & Arrangements is expensive, but they have THE BEST variety and info on each flower. I started my search here to figure out what flowers I wanted. You can search by color, which is helpful.
Wholesale flowers -roses- Wedding Flowers direct from the farm has a decent selection. They seemed to have the best pricing for what I need.
www.samsclub.com doesn't have a great selection, but they have the best price per stem. They do have most of your typical wedding flowers. I don't know if they have more or less variety in person, though.

Okay, I just realized I am going through Costco not Sams....sorry! Your right Sams was the one who's selection was very limited and then we went to Costco and they had the right color for me!
